Meyer talked about his team, some expectations, and then reporters asked about Tim Tebow. A lot. Seriously. They asked about Tebow's mission trips, his popularity, his playfakes to himself. Obviously, the guy won the Heisman and will be a huge part of whatever Florida does next year. Unfortunately, he still does not play defense, so that might be an issue for the Gators.

Here are some of his non-Tebow talking points:

There were a lot of good questions asked, at least by Meyer's reckoning. He began about half of his answers with "that's a really good question." It reminded me of last year at Media Days when Nick Saban answered questions of some elementary school reporters in one of the TV rooms. So by one account, Urban Meyer is nice to everyone and Nick Saban is only nice to children under 10. Or Meyer treats everyone like they're seven years old. Pick whichever answer feeds your team alliance.

The talent is mostly there for the Gators, with the biggest hole being at safety, where true freshman Will Hill may have a chance to start from day one. Meyer calls his team's discipline much improved from last year. Also, the team is crazy fast. He said the leadership was a question, but that it was a question for all 117 teams in 1-A college football. So, that means nothing, I guess.

He also said that he won't have a good feel for this team until "about the 16th day of training camp." My money says after that point, Meyer will say "we'll have a better idea once we play some real competition," followed later by "we'll know better at mid-season," followed by "we'll have a better idea after the season," and finally, "I'll know better after I'm dead."

The SEC, as usual, is stacked this year.

"Any given year, there are at least nine programs think they're going to win the conference title," Meyer said. "I don't know that you'll see that anywhere else in America."

Linebacker Brandon Spikes is important, and good, a reporter asked Meyer if Spikes' leadership is more important than Tebow's. Meyer said yes. I don't know why.

Florida will use more two tight end sets this year, and Meyer feels they're better equipped to do so than in years past.

Meyer took his family on a mission trip this summer, in homage to Tebow, who took three mission trips this summer, built a church in Namibia, eradicated the Asian bird flu, graduated early, solved the energy crisis and the crisis in the Middle East.
